French intelligence officials are reported to have warned their German counterparts about a potential attack,using an explosives-laden vehicle with official access to the football stadium, such as an ambulance, TV crew van or security patrol car.
Local newspaper Kreiszeitung reported a vehicle disguised as an ambulance and packed with explosives had been discovered parked outside Hannover stadium as Germany prepared to take on the Netherlands.
According to German newspaper Bild, a North African terror cell was planning to attack Hannover with assault rifles and suicide vests - chillingly similar to the methods used in Paris on Friday which killed 129.
The arena was evacuated after a suspected suspect package was found. It is then thought a truck or van disguised as an ambulance was found packed with explosives.
A van was seen being taken away from the area as an immediate threat and terror warning was extended to all of Hannover and a road block was put in place as the evacuation took place.
